RoHS stands for Restriction of Hazardous Substances and is a directive, which came into effect on 1st July, 2006.
WEEE stands for the Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Directive. In this section, we expand our environmental conversation with the Manufacturing Manager to include how he manages heavy metal content in his electronics. We will show how Oracle has expanded the governance and compliance theme into the Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) applications.
The RoHS regulations implement the provisions of the European Parliament and Council Directive on the Restrictions of the Use of Certain Hazardous Substances in Electrical and Electronic Equipment (2002/95/EC).
This directive was established to:
Protect human health and the environment
Complement the Waste of Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) directive (2002/96/EC)
